I like Mr. Farmer's proposal, it's got a little bit of an MPR feel to it, but I won't hold it against him :)

Well close, I think it was the recent PBS pledge drive echoing in my head, at least the "sustaining member" bit. :) Actually, I think they are both apt analogies, PBS and MPR are community funded public services, that many people benefit from, but in varying and unequal ways.

So, there's Neutrality-- which I think everyone connected to MICE has a common mindset in this department.
But many of us connect to MICE for very different reasons, so I suspect it will never be equal. Neutral, yes. But probably never completely equal.
